Global Hybrid Simulation of Magnetic Reconnection in the Magnetosheath

A three-dimensional (3-D) global hybrid simulation is carried out for the generation and structure of magnetic reconnection in the magnetosheath due to interaction of an interplanetary Tangential Discontinuity (TD) with the bow shock and magnetosphere. Runs are performed for solar wind TDs possessing different initial half-widths. As the TD propagates through the bow shock toward the magnetopause, it is greatly narrowed by a two-step compression processes, a "shock compression' followed by a subsequent ``convective compression'. In cases with a relatively thin solar wind TD, 3-D patchy reconnection is initiated in the transmitted TD, forming magnetosheath flux ropes. Multiple components of ion particles are present in the velocity distribution in the magnetosheath merging, accompanied by ion heating. For cases with a relatively wide initial TD, a dominant single X-line appears in the subsolar magnetosheath after the transmitted TD is narrowed. A shock analysis is performed for the detailed structure of magnetic reconnection in the magnetosheath. Rotational Discontinuity (RD)/Time-Dependent Intermediate Shock (TDIS) are found to dominate the reconnection layer, which and some weak slow shocks are responsible for the ion heating and acceleration.      

Observations of Magnetic Reconnection in the Magnetotail Associated With Substorms

Magnetic reconnection is one of the most important, dynamic phenomena in the magnetotail in terms of magnetic field line configuration change and energy release. It is believed to occur in the distant magnetotail mainly during southward interplanetary magnetic field periods and in the near-Earth magnetotail in association with substorms. In the present paper, we discuss several important issues concerning magnetic reconnection in the magnetotail associated with substorms, such as reconnection signatures, location, timing, spatial scale, and behavior, from the macroscopic, observational point of view.      

土木工程相关的台风近地风场实测研究

采用三维超声风速仪现场观测了台风"珍珠"和"派比安"的登陆过程,分析了两次台风过程的平均风速、风向变化历程以及台风脉动风速的概率密度分布,进一步研究了台风湍流强度、湍流积分尺度与阵风因子.结果表明:在低风速情况下,台风脉动风速接近正态分布,湍流强度与阵风因子存在近似线性关系,可用相关经验公式进行拟合。两次台风过程实测风速谱均可与某种理论谱模型较好吻合,通过拟合可以降低实测谱与理论谱的偏差。

不同压比状态下超声速射流冲击斜板的声场/流场特性

为研究超声速射流冲击斜板的噪声特性及声源特性,针对不同压比下,超声速射流流场及声场分别进行了高频PIV（particle image velocimetry)测量与远场噪声测量。PIV测量结果可观测到激波格栅形成过程以及冲击斜板对它的影响。声场测量结果可捕捉到自由射流与冲击射流中不同的纯音频率随压比增加的转变过程。通过一一对比各纯音模态与流场模态,可区分各纯音模态的声源特性。结果表明:当压比在2.0~3.2之间时,共出现五种纯音模态:A模态纯音频率为剪切层大尺度涡脱落频率,此时流场呈现同轴模态;d模态和e模态中纯音频率主要为冲击纯音频率,且e模态出现时流场转化为螺旋模态,这是一种不稳定模态;当压比大于等于2.53时,纯音模态稳定成单一模态B,B模态纯音频率为啸叫频率,其流场结构转化回同轴模态,啸叫频率对斜板的存在与否不敏感;啸叫频率随着压比的增加逐渐减小,其二次谐频在基频幅值较小的方向上会出现一个强声波辐射。      

渐扩变截面通道对会切磁场推力器性能的影响

为了改善会切磁场推力器在低功率下对中低等流量变化的不适应性,采用了一种渐扩的变截面通道设计来提升推力器中低等流量下的性能,对比了两种等截面通道与一种渐扩通道在中低等流量下的性能。虽然渐扩通道与小直径的等截面通道相比,会略微降低通道内的原子密度,但渐扩通道由于减小了出口离子能量损失,同时增大磁镜比促进电离,从而能够提升推力器在同等推力水平下的效率。而大直径等截面通道和小直径等截面通道分别由于原子密度过低及壁面损失较大,性能均不如渐扩通道。因此,渐扩型变截面通道在中低等流量变化范围内具有更优的性能,这对推力器性能的进一步优化具有重要意义。

基于混合介质雷诺平均Navier-Stokes方程,对开放空腔壳体垂直入水运动过程开展了数值研究,得到了压力场、速度场分布,空泡波动、闭合特征,空腔气体涨缩规律,以及流体动力变化规律,并分析了空腔结构在入水运动过程中对流场结构和流体动力的影响。结果表明:液体随气体涨缩同步进出开放端;开放端局部形成波动的压力源和周期性的压力场、速度场分布;入水空泡呈现波动形态,其扩展程度与开放端液体流速相关;空泡内形成气体漩涡,随空腔涨缩往返进出空泡,对空泡闭合具有抑制作用;流体动力呈波动变化规律,频率与气体涨缩频率一致,幅值与气体涨缩程度成正比。开放空腔结构在入水过程中空腔内气体发生涨缩运动,对流场结构和流体动力产生周期性扰动作用,在一定程度上可以减缓冲击、维持空泡及运动的稳定性。      

一种超薄反作用飞轮的大面积磁悬浮结构分析

为提高轴向磁通反作用飞轮的轴向刚度和寿命,结合轴向磁通飞轮的结构,提出一种超薄、大面积磁悬浮的反作用飞轮。重点分析该飞轮的大面积磁悬浮结构,从磁环的宽度、磁环的充磁方向、磁环间距、铁芯厚度和磁悬浮刚度五个方面展开研究。通过有限元仿真可以发现：随磁环宽度的增加,定子对转子的斥力是先增大后减小;定子内外环磁化方向相反时比相同时能得到更大的斥力;在内外环磁化方向相反时,内外环磁钢间距越小,定子对转子斥力越大;磁悬浮部分铁芯厚度的减小对定转子间的斥力的影响极其有限,但对降低飞轮重量具有重要意义;磁悬浮的刚度与转子偏离中心的距离近似成正比。     

Passive inter-modulation scattering analysis of reflector considering contact nonlinearity

 Passive inter-modulation (PIM) is a form of nonlinear distortion caused by the inherent nonlinearities of the passive devices and components in RF/microwave system. It will degenerate the performance of communication system with broad-band channel and high-sensitivity receiver. Therefore, it is necessary to construct a model to simulate this process in order to predict the level of PIM. This paper is aimed at constructing some plate models with one-dimensional and two-dimensional contact nonlinearity sections illuminated by two-tone waves, and calculating the scattered field at a fixed-point in space using time-domain physical optics method. By taking fast Fourier transform (FFT), we get the spectrum of the scattered field and then analyze the generated PIM products. At the end of this paper, some numerical examples are presented to show the influence rules of the relative factors on PIM. The results indicate the variation of the level of PIM with the number of the nonlinear regions, the nonlinear spacing, and the incident power levels.
